Lamour walked out of his front doors and confronted the man, who replied, “You shouldn’t be voting for this Craig Prewett fellow, you should vote for Steve Thompson,” said Prewett’s spokesman John Harris. Lamour said he followed the man across the street, where the man began pulling signs out of Prewett’s front yard.

Lamour told Channel 2’s Ross Cavitt that when he told the man to stop, the man pulled out a knife and “lunged at him.” Lamour said he screamed, and his brother, Edgar Lamour, and Prewett rushed to help him.

Just remember folks, you need to keep an eye out for those Tea Party members with their Gadsen flags and American flag shirts. Black Panthers with billy clubs and crazed supporters engaging in knife attacks and tearing up campaign signs are simply thinking of the children. Or maybe not.

The three got into a car and chased the accused attacker, who had sped off in a pickup truck, Lamour said. They followed him through residential areas, and the man nearly hit someone at Powder Springs Elementary School, where a bus driver called the police, Harris said.

And what is this with the guy getting in a pick up truck? I thought only racist Republicans owned pick up trucks.
